Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : States did the same.
50% : That statement is a typical example of the law enforcement attitude about money bail.
50% : Since the Superior Court unveiled its new pretrial program in July, Moore, Luna and others in law enforcement have lobbied the judges to give police more power to seek exceptions in order to avoid releasing some suspects who are otherwise eligible to be simply cited with an instruction to appear in court on the proper date.
33% : Yet it is a fundamental responsibility of government to keep people safe, and police are frustrated at the prospect of stopping criminals only to be required to immediately release them so that they might possibly commit more crimes.
